Critics Consensus

Joaquin Phoenix's eponymous Joker takes the stand in a sequel that dances around while the story remains still, although Lady Gaga's wildcard energy gives Folie á Deux some verve.

Audience Says

A broken Joker and his Lady’s voice provide Folie à Deux with enough kindling to keep a tepid fire burning for the clown prince of crime.

Joker: Folie a Deux is a masterpiece. Not a once-in-a-generation masterpiece but an ambitious and emotionally intelligent film that challenges everything it touches.

I was often bored, occasionally disgusted and only mildly entertained.

Chicago Reader

Set on tediously considering its predecessor, Joker: Folie à Deux offers nothing to the franchise.

John Rocha

The Outlaw Nation (Youtube)

Todd Phillips delivers an inspired, thought provoking and challenging sequel that works so well until it completely falls apart in its final third with confounding character choices and plot resolutions and a final twist that insults fans of 2019's JOKER.

Rated: 2.5/5

Ramble On With Buffa (Substack)

There’s little to zero point to any of it! Ask me what this sequel produces for the people who wanted more of the brilliant chaos from the original, and I’d have to think on it while trying to decipher if a shoulder shrug would suffice as an answer.

I found it enthralling, a bold genre mix ... [and a] subversion of expectations for a sequel, giving us not another gleeful retaliation against the slings and arrows of a mixed-up, muddled-up, shook-up world but a meditation between outer and inner selves

It’s a beautiful movie, visual and sonic masterpiece. It makes fun of fans of the original movie with wild character arches and unhinged musical injections, and that makes it that much better. They took risks and some people can’t take it.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

While some songs are alright, I believe that it would have been better if this whole film was done for the first act, with Joker and Harley then leaving to cause mayhem across Gotham for a second and third act.
